Halloween Card Swap!

Hi Friends,

Today I'm sharing a card with you that I made for a Card Swap group that I joined in Canada. I love working with paper especially creating 3D projects but I'm new to making cards and not very confident when trying to get my ideas down onto paper! So joining this group challenges me to get it done!

This months theme is Halloween so after many different ideas I finally came up with the following card ... last minute changes and add ons ...

Cardstock was from my ever growing stash, the ghost image (Happy Haunting) was from Too Cute by Jessica a freebie from a recent Blog Hop on Craftin Desert Divas and the 'ribbon' text (Halloween Title Set $0.50) was from Miss Kate Cuttables. Both images were printed and I used the Silhouette print and cut feature.

I hope my card swap buddy enjoys this card!

Thank you for visiting!

BOO to you!

Hi everyone,

I finally finished my BOO sign for Halloween for my front door. I used some Halloween paper I had stashed away for this fun time and got my son to help me choose some ribbon from Michaels craft store.

After cutting the paper I needed to make the letters a bit more sturdier so I raided my pantry and emptied my sons cereal boxes and cut the letters out of these ... first time I've used packaging and my Silhouette machine cut through it quite nicely. I used some free clipart (ghost and the pumpkins) which I printed on matte photo paper and added to the letters - I'm very happy with the results.

We have a glass screen door so the sign will be protected from the outside weather so hopefully it will hold up well when it turns colder outside.

Thank you for visiting me today!
Happy crafting and a early Happy Halloween!
